View of my Blender file is completely messed up and I cannot seem to fix it
Welcome to Blender!

Have you tried changing the camera lock settings? Press N to bring up the sidebar. On the right-hand side of the sidebar, press the View tab then expand the View Lock options.  Here, you can toggle locking to the 3D cursor, to View, or to an object.

If you would like your view to always rotate around the selected object, press, in the top left corner, press Edit > Preferences. Open the Navigation tab, and check Orbit around selection. Please note that your viewport will still rotate around the 3D cursor if that option is checked in the sidebar mentioned above.
